About The City Backpack:
We wanted to create a bag inspired by the city, with the versatility of a tote, the functionality of a messenger and we thought there's no better place to debut it then at the 99% design conference in New York. A sophisticated bag with a long slim aesthetic that perfectly fits a 13" macBook Air, iPad or Moleskine, the new Rickshaw "City Collection" is simple, stylish, versatile, and customizable. We designed our new three-style tote series to be the perfect companion bag for your on-the-go essentials. 

A Functional Approach:
We've designed an innovative accessory system designed to work seamlessly with our City Collection family. Continuing our philosophy of minimal, sustainable design, each bag has a strip of velcro designed to hold accessories that can add function to your bag. We believe your bag should adapt, and our accessory system allows you to easily change your bag's configuration. Here's our full line of interchangeable velcro accessories, and we're steadily working on more.

About Design:
We pride ourselves on following our three F's of design, Form Function and Footprint, to craft a quality product with urban communing in mind. Next time you're in town, we invite you to come take a tour of our San Francisco factory to see where each and every Zero is made.

Pros: Attractive
Cons: Too Small, Uncomfortable

It's a nice looking bag and the optional shoulder straps vs. back straps design is great. The straps themselves however feel kinda flimsy and look out of place on the nice body of the bag. That aside, my only real complaint is that if I put anything more than two medium sized text books in the bag and wear it on my back, the closure snap pops open, which is no good if I'm on my bike. If you guys could add a better snap closure, or at least two of them, I'd rate this product 5 star.

This bag is very stylish and arrived promptly and looks exactly as I thought it would based on the photos/video on the Rickshaw site. However, the straps are too thin and cut into your shoulders a bit. Also the button opens if you have a bike lock plus a book in the bag. I would consider adding velcro or changing to a sturdier button.

I like the my City Tote Backpack because is lightweight and pretty!
